Special Collections is on the 6th floor, not the second. Sorry for the error.
For anyone looking for photos of the Amon Carter Airport (Greater Southwest Int'l Airport) Check with the Univ. of Texas library, SPECIAL COLLECTIONS up on the 2nd floor. The photos were primarily taken by the Ft. Worth Star Telegram and donated to the library. The photos are mostly black and white. They are excellent! I can atest to that. I visited the library about a year ago and was pleasantly surprized at what they have available. Photos can be purchased at $10 per print. Unless you have another outside source, this collection is by far the best I've ever seen. Check them out.

Everytime I fly into DFW, I see what appears to be a piece of runway about 2 miles south of the airport. Finally looked up what it was and found out that this used to be a big airport. Lots of pictures and information about this mystery airport can be found here: http://www.airfields-freeman.com/TX/Airfields_TX_FtWorth_NE.html

Home of NORAD ID Z-88, guardian of the Gulf of Mexico. Capable of launching 3 B-52's side by side 25 sec. apart , it would shake cars 4 miles away. Alternate landing field for the US Space Shuttles .

Reply to @thod: I changed the latitude of the airport from 0 to the same as the latitude of Utley TX, and I've changed the +97.41 to -97.41. Still don't see an airport there.
Found utley, texas in google:

dont know if there is an airfield there? It's at 97.41deg W compared to 97.4 deg E that this airport have as position...
There's no airport of this name in the FAA or Eurocontrol data.
Location of this field must be wrong?

San Angelo has a great Chinese food resaurant on the airport grounds. Very good food and large portions.
Great food within 1/4 mile of airport.

we were up there on our bicycles after riding from the park, pretty rough shape, I don't think I would land my plane there.
